Up and back, up and back. Always passing that same person going the other way: who are they, how many laps are they doing, are they going to run into me, am I faster than them? These questions float through your head until you focus on your stroke and just get on with your laps.
This picture is part of a series of impasto oil paintings inspired by Australia’s beautiful beach landscapes and ocean pools. Paint has been generously applied using a palette knife rather than a brush, giving texture and depth. Close up textures are abstract colours, resolving in clarity as you step back to take in the whole painting.
Impasto oil on canvas, 92cm x92cm, price includes framing in white wood.
